La propiedad — Alia mare
Alia Mare is a straightforward three-star on Rodos’ eastern coast, a short walk from the beach and a five-minute drive from the old town. The lobby is small, tiled and functional – no frills, but clean, with a helpful reception desk and a lift to the rooms. It suits budget-conscious couples or solo travellers who want a decent bed near the sea rather than resort entertainment or luxury.
Crónicas de Rodos
Rodos city was founded in 408 BC by the ancient Greeks and grew rich from maritime trade. The Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders, once stood here but collapsed in an earthquake in 226 BC. Crusader Knights of St John rebuilt the harbour and walled Old Town in the 14th century, leaving a mix of Byzantine, Gothic and Ottoman architecture. Today, the UNESCO-listed Old Town is a living museum of narrow alleys, minarets and medieval inns, while the New Town buzzes with cafés and shops.

Guía completa de Rodos →Los mejores meses
May, June and September – hot enough for swimming (25-30°C), but not the July-August meltemi wind and crowds. Accommodation is easier to book and prices are lower than peak.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August, plus the first week of September. Greek ferries and charter flights fill the island; hotel rates double. Events include the Medieval Rose Festival (June) and the Yiannis Parios concert (August).
La temporada del hombro
Late April to mid-May and late September to October. Easter can be quiet; October sees discount drops of 30-40% on rooms, with sea temperatures still pleasant for swimming until mid-month.
Tiempo y embalaje
July in Rodos is reliably hot (28-33°C) with strong northerly meltemi winds that pick up in the afternoon. Pack a lightweight windbreaker or wrap for evenings on the terrace, and always carry sunscreen – the reflected glare off the sea and pale stone can burn quickly.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Alia mare, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 2-3 facing the back courtyard. These are quieter than street-side rooms and avoid ground-floor foot traffic.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor (lift noise and lobby bustle) and any room directly above the bar or service area—likely at the rear but check with reception.
Best views
Side or rear rooms offer glimpses of the old town or sea, but because this is a 3-star property on Rodos’ main tourist strip, front rooms give street views with traffic noise—pick rear for quiet at the expense of outlook.
Quietest floors
Floors 2-3 are the quietest due to distance from street and ground-level activity.
🔊 Noise notes
Main street noise is the primary issue—Rodos’ center has bars, scooters, and delivery trucks until late; also note lift clatter on ground floor.
Insider tips
1) Request a rear-facing room when booking—this side tends to be cooler and quieter. 2) If you arrive by car, ask reception about free street parking on side streets (the hotel may not advertise it).
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants and shops; contactless works fine, but carry cash for tavernas, taxis and small kiosks.

The old town and Elli Beach area have numerous souvlaki and crepe stands; Orfanidou Street is known for budget grill spots.
